Everything she touches turns to gold! Lady Gaga blings up her mitts with sparkling jewellery

Lady Gaga's wacky costumes may be becoming slightly tedious, but there's no denying that the girl knows how to dress like a superstar.

Superstars, of course, don't need to type, load the dishwasher or drive a car, and Gaga embodied this at London's Harrods today by wearing a profligate amount of gold jewellery on her hands.

Gold Fingers! Lady Gaga adorned her hands with an extraordinary array of bling for the launch of her debut fragrance, Fame, at Harrods today

The savvy little songstress was launching her new perfume, Fame, at the legendary Knightsbridge store.

And she proved that she's so famous that she'd need someone else to spray her with the witty fragrance, given the impractical metal that crept up her arm to form talons of pewter.

But then the 26-year-old has always known how to send herself up brilliantly, and that's exactly what she was doing today.

Bad luck for any fans who wanted to shake her hand as she sashayed into the huge department store, and a high five would've been potentially murderous.

Gaga was in the mood for love and harmony, however, so will have avoided any potential Edward Scissorhands moments.

As she headed to the shop, Gaga tweeted: 'So excited, going to be at @Harrods in an hour! Just drove though London, so beautiful seeing all the Sunday strollers in love...'

All that day-dreaming and adornment must've held the Bad Romance star up, as she annoyed fans by arriving an hour late for the appearance.

According to an eye-witness, hundreds of screaming fans crammed the streets around the luxury department store.

But many were left disappointed after she refused to walk the full length of a specially themed black carpet, and then went inside before some had even caught sight of her, leading to a chorus of boos.

Demure: Gaga's subtle make-up and Sixties inspired bouffant actually suited her very well

Luke Reader, 18, from central London, said: 'It's quite ironic it's called Fame because it just shows how much fame has changed her.

'She couldn't even spend five minutes talking and having some pictures taken. It's not on.'

Alex George, 18, from Islington, north London, waited almost three hours to see Lady Gaga and described the event as 'a bit of a let down.'

She added: 'I'm obviously annoyed. She was late and I thought she would sign autographs and I'd be able to get a picture.'

It wasn't just English fans who were having a bad romance with Gaga after it emerged that some people threw sausages at her when she performed on stage in Barcelona.

The singer took the jibe, which was about her 25lb weight gain, in good spirits and tweeted after the show: 'SPAIN, you took the p*** outta me. Thats some hard bodied pop stuff. I'll never forget tonight Barcelona. FOREVER'.

However, Lady Gaga also vomited during her set while performing Edge Of Glory, but continued to finish the song.
